Excellent. I haven't heard of three films on this list, which also happen to be the three Argentinian films, which leads me to believe that SCFZ's list is highly appropriate for this thread. Since I'm a fan of the rest of the top-1 (minus Spring Breakers -- haven't seen), particularly Werckmeister Harmonies & Platform, I'm going to endorse the entire linked list.

I liked the SCFZ21CT100 list so much I made a collection for it:

Thanks for the additional info; actually I'd never heard of SCFZ before and still haven't made any effort to find out what it is. I'll be looking at more of their collections in the future. Anyway, to elaborate, some things I found quite enticing about their top-100 included:
- a number of high-ranked films I haven't heard of, as I mentioned
- personal favourites highly-ranked, including some lesser-known ones: Linda Linda Linda? Platform? Who's Camus Anyway? Great stuff.
- Inside Llewyn Davis ranked above No Country for Old Men is particularly appealing; even though I've personally ranked them in the conventional order, I love ILD and think it deserves to be in the conversation with NCFOM, Fargo & The Big Lebowski whenever the topic of "Coens' best movie" comes up.

scfz span off from the mubi forum when the owners of mubi began reducing user content. small community of people who (i think they would agree) pride themselves on chasing obscure cinema. it's a quiet forum that perks up somewhat when a poll comes around. they continue the mubi tradition of the director's cup.
